Luca heard what Luke said and turned to look at him. Her heart skipped a beat as she asked, “Mr.


    Crawford, are you going to scope out the location tomorrow?"


    "Yes. I''ll try my best toe up with a design," said Luke as he spread ayer of BBQ sauce on the


    grilled meat.


    "Do you mind taking me along with you when you''re going there? I''m interested in such things," said


    Luca. Although she had learned many things over the past few years, it seemed like architectural


    design was still her favorite.


    She would like to participate in the process of designing the ancestral hall.


    Even though she could not show that she knew architectural design in front of Luke, at least she could


    show that she was interested in it.


    "Sure." Luke agreed to it. Then, he turned around to look at Percy and Nina, "Mrs. Mallory, do you have


    any ns tomorrow?"


    Luke addressing Nina as ‘Mrs. Mallory'' made Nina''s face turn red again. It took a while for the redness


    on her cheek to go away.


    Although she had already registered her marriage with Percy, it was her first time hearing someone


    calling her like that.


    Not to mention that it was Luke...


    "Mr. Crawford, stop teasing me. You can call me by my name," Nina quickly replied.


    "No way. Mrs. Mallory sounds good. That''s what he''ll call you in the future. It''s pleasing to the ears,"


    Percy continued.


    Nina gently nudged Percy''s hand with her elbow and said, "You''d better eat your dinner."


    "Honey, here''s the chicken wing I grilled for you. Have a taste of it. Does it taste good?" Percy said with


    a hint of ttery in his voice as he handed the chicken wing he grilled to Nina.


    Nina took a bite and furrowed her brows.


    "How is it?" It was the first time Percy grilled a chicken wing himself. The Mallory family seldom hosted


    barbecue dinners like this. Besides, Percy did not like eating grilled food. That was why he seldom had


    the chance to barbecue.


    Nina''s features were contorted.


    Percy frowned and said, "Does it taste bad? That''s impossible. I watched Lanie and the others grill it


    like this."


    Lanie could no longer stand it as he reminded Percy, “Mr. Percy, maybe the chicken wing isn''t fully


    cooked yet."


    "Really?" Percy frowned. The skin of the chicken wing was burnt.


    "It''s not fully cooked..." Nina showed Percy the chicken wing. It was still a little red on the bone.


    Percy grabbed the chicken wing from her and threw it in the trash bin. Then, he said, "Stop eating it. I''ll


    grill another one for you."


    Nina looked at the man who had never done something like this but was fumbling to grill a chicken wing


    for her. She suddenly thought it was amusing. Then, she stopped him and said, "It''s okay. Let me do it."


    "Then what should I do?" Percy mumbled in her ears. He did not expect his first attempt to grill a


    chicken wing to fail.


    Nina noticed Otto was bringing the decanted wine over. He was walking toward them. She said, "Have


    a drink and wait for your food."


    "Okay." Percy felt helpless. He was not good at cooking. His gaze fell on Luke. Luke was grilling the


    food seriously. Hence, he poured a ss of wine and handed it to him. "Here. Have a drink."


    "Thanks." Luke took the wine ss from him. He took a sip of the wine and ced it on the table.


    "It''s nothing. It''s your wine." Percy took a sip of the wine. It was indeed good.


    No one had lived in the mansion for a long time, but Luke stored so many good wines here. If no one


    drank them, was he nning to keep them and only drink them when he was old?


    Luke raised his brows and reminded Percy, "You''ll be paying for the wine."


    "..." Percy was bbergasted. Based on what Luke said, he should be thanking him for the wine.


    Nina handed Percy the grilled steak and said, "Here''s your food."


    "Honey, you''re still the best," Percy whined.


    Luca looked at their interaction and eximed. Love could truly change someone.


    Luca looked at the way Percy treated Nina now and recalled how impressive he was when he picked


    up a weapon and wiped out the Ind of Despair back then. She could not believe he was the same


    person.


    "Don''t say those things in front of the kids," Nina blushed and replied to him. Since Nina got married to


    him, she seemed to be blushing a lot.


    Moreover, after they registered their marriage, Percy had gotten even clingier.


    "What are you afraid of? Luke''s kids can handle these sorts of stuff well," said Percy unconcernedly.


    The three kids quietly grilled their food. They did not retort Percy''s words.


    Nina shook his head. Look at how wild Percy was. Was he still the noble young master of the Mallory


    family?


    She turned to look at Luke and asked, "Mr. Crawford, what were you saying just now?"


    "If you don''t have anything nned, would you mind helping us to take care of our kids?" Luke said.

    Tommy heard Luke and before Nina could say anything, he asked, "Daddy, can''t you take us along with


    you?"


    "It''s inconvenient for me to do so," replied Luke. Not only was he going to the ancestral hall to scope


    out the area, but there were many things he had to measure. There were some measuring tools and


    drawing tools in his car trunk.


    "Daddy, Ms. Luca ising with you. Please take us..." Tommy acted cute, trying to persuade Luke to


    bring them along with him.


    "There''s no room for discussion."


    Tommy looked at Luke and mumbled, "Daddy, Mr. Percy and Ms. Nina are enjoying their honeymoon


    now. How can you leave your kids to them? We''ll be intruding!"


    "Pfft." Percy could not help but snort when he heard what the kid said. "Luke, your son is truly


    talented."


    Luke looked at his son. He could feel the cold sweat on his forehead as he said, "If they''re going out,


    the three of you should stay in the vi and I''ll ask Mr. Muller to take care of you. I''ll bring you out after


    I''ve finished scoping the area."


    Luca could help him if she went with him.


    However, what could the children do if they went there with him?


    Were they going to y and run around in the ancestral hall? People coulde into the ancestral


    hall. If something happened to the kids or some people intended to harm them, Luke would not be able


    to be there for them.


    "Daddy''s going to work." Although Rainie would like to go with them, she understood that it would be


    troublesome for their father to bring them along as he was going there to work.


    Luke used to bring Lanie and Rainie along with him to work back then. Sometimes, they would even


    head to the construction site.


    Luke would have to find someone to look after them when they were at the site. He had to make sure


    they were far away from the construction site. He never allowed them to enter.


    It was dangerous.


    Tommy refused to give up. He turned to look at Lanie and said, "Lanie, don''t you want to go along too?


    I heard that it''s going to be fun at the ancestral hall."


    "What''s so interesting about a ce that''s going to be reconstructed? I''d prefer to stay at home," Lanie


    said in a cool and chilled manner.


    Tommy had no choice but to shut up. His brother and sister were not siding with him. He knew it was


    hopeless.


    Nina looked at the kids and spoke, "Mr. Crawford, we''re not nning to go anywhere tomorrow. Leave


    the kids to us. We can look after them."


    "Luke, don''t you think you should give me a bottle of wine to thank me for taking care of your kids?"


    Percy had no problem taking care of the kids. After all, the three kids were more obedient than other


    kids, and they were not naughty at all.


    "You''ll have to thank me for giving you the chance to learn," Luke took a sip of the wine and said


    calmly.


    "Huh?" Percy could not understand what he meant.
